Being a helper

I do not mind helping in need, but there comes a time when being a helper is a pain. You try to help in every way you can with what others need help in or with, but when it is your turn to need help NO ONE is there to help. Sometimes I do not want to help for I know they will not be there when I need some help in the future. I mainly just struggle with whatever I need to do. Sometimes I cannot even do my new job for someone always needs something when I am working on my money-making opportunities. It just seems like no one seems to care if I can earn enough for my old age which it seems to approaching. I watched kids for the past four going on five years and was only paid one time. Financially I cannot wait any longer to not have an income. Is it selfish to want to make money for one's old age when one cannot work any more. My new job is as you know is a study guide writer, but it seems that every time I pick up the book and pen to start work someone needs help with something. A lot of times I just do not think any one cares about what I need to do. Am I wrong in my thinking and thanks for reading my venting.

I agree. But sometimes you need to learn how to say no and prioritize yourself.
